I have Cubase SX 2.n slaved to my AW16G and I've had it working alright. However, it has been getting skippy when I've got it recording or playing. Well, the transport on Cubase is actually flitting between stop and play, which is really weird. When Cubase is sync'd internally everything is totally fine. It is only when the AW16G is running it becomes problematic. I am running midi to an external sampler whilst doing this, but I've got the thru going to the Yamaha. I've tried taking the sampler out of the set-up but it makes no difference.

Does anyone know what it might be? I'm really struggling to sort it out

Hi and welcome, there is a guy called Dirk on the forum which would know more about using Cubase with your machine than I suppose anyone else, and he shouldn't be long because it`s cover Sunday Good luck.

I'm not sure about this since i don't seem to have this problem but then again i'm running Cubase LE 5.

Can you tell me what hardware you use ? Except for the AW you must be using a Midi interface. Can you tell me which one ? I'd also like to know how you have set up the AW Midi page (utillities). PC or MAC ? Looping midi back to the AW or not ? Do you have antivirus running ?

I'm sorry to start with only questions but we have to know what we are dealing with first.

Let's see what we can find out ...

I also get sync problems with the 16G and cubase sx3. I don't know how to sort it either. Sometimes I re-boot the PC and it's ok again. Maybe something running in the background is causing it. Also if I play something into cubase in real time, when I play it back it's out of time (like half a bar late). So I manually move everything to the correct starting position. It might just be a lack of knowledge on my part

Thanks for the responses, and the welcome! I've figured out what it is. My midi adaptor seems to be lagging in places to I set the MTC drop-out time to about 18 in Cubase and it solved the problem. Though the lag on stopping is a lot now. I'm on a Dell laptop PC, (plenty of RAM and CPU speed - but no external sound card - I'm just using it to sequence synths and samplers) and I'm using the M-Audio Uno. Everything else works fine with it. Though admittedly I've not done workstation syncing with this set-up before. Any idea what might be causing the Uno to lag?

Thanks!

PS I guess this isn't the place to be asking about my midi adaptor though!

I'm trying to find what could be wrong with the setup of haex. Nothing so far. It's hard to find a solution if you don't have the problem.

Bobby : Are you talking about audio ? Did you check the latency of your audio interface ? If it's consistent you could try adjusting for record latency. It auto forward shifts your recordings. It's on the device setup window. Are you using AsioForAll drivers ? If not try that. They are a lot faster than most others on pc systems.

With midi however if have never had latency problems over the years as basically there is almost no data going through the system. It is important not to run anything else when working with cubase. In the case of midi recordings it is often good to have four bars of emptyness before a project. (select all tracks and insert). It gives the system time to analyze incomming midi timecode.

I do remember having to get the latest drives for my Roland Midi interface. I had latency with the driver that was delivered with the device but the update solved that.
